It challenges Amazon's long-form remake, questioning if it can maintain the original's ambiguity while extracting more from the novel. <a href="https://srislawyer.com/big-truck-accident-attorney//" rel="nofollow">big truck accident attorney</a>kevinnelsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06454660930489309532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5577490778732005247.post-28329278285703971492018-06-21T14:36:46.090-07:002018-06-21T14:36:46.090-07:00The PaHR tv series was made by Foxtel in Australia...The PaHR tv series was made by Foxtel in Australia and looks like it is available via Amazon in the US. Reviews haven't been favourable here (Aust) but this could be largely because they are always of the "it's not the movie" kind and we're a country that does like to criticism its own work. The comparison is of course inevitable but taken on it's own merits I found the 6 part season a worthwhile and entertaining work. It's also not trying to recreate the film - or, as many seem to think, take something away from the original (which still exists, amazing!). I was uncertain about Natalie Dormer's casting throughout - she's very good I'm just not sure it was the right direction for the role. The girls are largely excellent and the production design is gorgeous (the costumes in particular are superb). I was also pleased they went with ambient electronics for the soundtrack ditching the pan pipes :)The small but incongruous touches like the shocking pink titles were also a nice addition.
